Possibly the cutest Stone Age artifact | The Amber Bear of Slupsk
The Amber Bear of Slupsk was found in 1887 during peat mining near Słupsk, modern-day Poland. It was made by carving and polishing a conveniently shaped piece of sea amber with a natural opening. Signs of wear around the holes indicate it was worn on a cord probably as an amulet. It is estimated that it was made between 9600 and 4100 BC.

Its front side portrays one of the most realistic engagements between Roman cavalry and barbarians during the Marcomannic Wars. A faceless knight dominates at the center of the scene. His identity is debatable and so are the reasons why his face was never carved. Roman Empire Aulus Julius P...

The bronze head of Seuthes III was discovered in 2004 by Bulgarian archaeologists in the royal burial site of Golyama Kosmatka, not far from the ancient city of Seuthopolis. Seuthes III was a king of Odrysia, a part of Thrace, during the late 4th century BC. The findings at Golyama Kosmatka suggest that an Orphic ritual was carried out on the day of his burial.

    An artistic representation of Cleopatra VII can prove absolutely nothing about her ancestry. Just look at Rashida Jones, daughter of Quincy Jones. On the other hand, let's make a historical point. In ancient Egypt, during the Persian domination (from around the 6th to the 3rd century BC), BEFORE the arrival of the Greeks, Aramaic-Egyptian bilingualism was adopted. More broadly, the various communities that settled in Egypt, or that were close to it, encouraged the development of multilingualism (Ethiopian, Arabic, Mede). Following the Greek invasion, Koinè (a common language derived from several dialects of the Ionian-Attic group) was adopted by the Hellenised Egyptian elite living in the Greek metropolises. In rural villages, on the other hand, Egyptian was spoken. Until the Hellenistic period, Greece did not constitute a nation, and there were several dialects. It was thanks to the conquests of Alexander the Great that Ionian-Attic, or Koinè, was established. Thereafter, the Greeks were determined to impose this language. It would become part of their identity. Throughout the Hellenistic period, the city of Alexandria was the largest city in the Greek world. The city was the capital of Lagid power. The Greek rulers refused to learn the local languages and imposed the Greek language as a means of communication in fiscal, administrative, military and political matters. The Greeks, born in Egypt, continued to define themselves by their cultural particularism, which set them apart from the Egyptians. They often constituted a community apart and viewed the native population with a certain distance. Although immersed in an Egyptian environment, they were careful to maintain their Greek culture. So, Cleopatra was born into an environment in which no Greek had learned to speak the Egyptian language for almost 300 years. It was a tradition. It was a rule. As with all invaders. No European learned the language of the Amerindians when they landed in the Americas, or that of the Aborigines in Australia. Hitler, to my knowledge, did not try to practise the French language. So, how, rationally, could a descendant of the Ptolemies defy a major ban, respected by her entire line for several centuries, and suddenly decide to go against this ban, a centuries-old tradition ? How could 2 Greek-Macedonian parents, living in Alexandria, teach Egyptian to one of their daughters, when they themselves only speak Koinè and refuse to learn the local languages ? Find out more about bilingualism. Ask bilingual people. How did they manage to speak 2 languages? Because they were immersed in 2 cultures. Not by taking lessons from teachers. To speak a second language fluently, you first have to learn some basic phrases, then talk to a speaker of that language, hear and listen to that language on a daily basis, In fact, I invite you to do your own experiment. Try teaching a second language to a 2-year-old child, so that he or she speaks it fluently 10 years later... What will you do? Once an interest in languages has been created in a young brain, it's possible to envisage learning a 3rd, a 4th and so on! Cleopatra's taste for learning several languages therefore undoubtedly came from her Egyptian mother. This definitely gives Cleopatra VII an Egyptian ancestry. An African ancestry. Moreover, it is not impossible that Cleopatra VII's mother was descended from Greek and Egyptian parents... It is perhaps less demonstrative, but Octavian, referring to the relationship between Mark Antony and Cleopatra, refers to her as "the Egyptian". What's more, Cleopatra's daughter honoured the Egyptian religious elite in her distant capital of Caesarea of Mauretania (in modern Algeria) by building a temple dedicated to Isis . It makes sense when you honour your own ancestors . In the manuscript L'Abreujamen de las estorias (BL, Egerton MS. 1500) written around 1321-24 by Paolino Veneto, available online (type 'f. 15v Cleopatra and Julius Caesar'), Julius Caesar is depicted in white, and Cleopatra in black .

What is certain is that the Greeks living in Egypt refused to learn the local languages, wanting to assert their own culture. What is certain is that Cleopatra VII spoke at least 7 languages, including Greek, Egyptian and Aramaic. What is certain is that Cleopatra VII learnt to speak Egyptian through intimate daily contact with Egyptian speakers. Consequently, a Greek mother could never have taught Cleopatra to speak Egyptian and Aramaic. It was only an Egyptian mother who taught Cleopatra to speak these languages. Cleopatra therefore obviously had Egyptian blood. Cleopatra therefore unquestionably had African blood.
